Kent Carter (Ross Alexander),
publicity director of a moving pic-
ture studio, refuses to promote his
secretary and sweetheart, Linda
Warren (Anne Nagel), because
he fears she would be a success—
which would take her away from
him.

Rex Marchbanks (Craig Rey-
nolds), the studio’s pet star de-
mands that Kent do something to
pacify the movie actor’s wife who
has a warrant for his arrest on a
charge of desertion. Kent, who
hates the actor, calls the police in-
stead, and is fired.

Unable to land a better job,
Kent becomes a leg man for Mel
Winter (Hobart Cavanaugh),
radio commentator on Hollywood
subjects. When Mel is too drunk
to go on the air, Kent substitutes
with such sensational success that
he replaces Mel permanently.

Linda is disgusted with Kent
because he plays up scandal in his
broadcasts, being especially vindi-
cative toward Rex. But Kent’s new
secretary, Verna Kennedy (Glenda
Farrell), is for him no matter
what he does.

Kent uses his influence to make
Linda a radio starlet, but hides
from her the fact that he got her
the job.

Kent continues his attacks on
Rex, with the result that the star
engages gangster Steve Moran
(Norman Willis) to intimidate the
“lowdowner.” Steve assigns Slugs
(John Sheehan) to the job.

Kent gets some secrets out of
Slugs, a movie fan, and reveals
them on the air. The gangsters
then give Kent a_ beating-up
which sends him to the hospital.
Nonetheless, he broadcasts from
his bed, naming his assailants.

Slugs “calls” again, this time
to kill the broadcaster, but once
more Kent gives him the run-
around. In fact, he succeeds in
getting the tough to admit that
Steve killed a bank teller.

Steve finally decides to attend
to Kent personally. The ex-pub-
licity man makes advance ar-
rangements for the gangster’s visit
by planting a secret microphone.
The result is that Steve, in the
course of threatening him, admits
various crimes over the air.

‘The gangster is about to kill
Kent when the police, who have
been planted on the scene, appear.
In an attempt to escape, Steve is
shot and falls from the fire es-
cape.

Kent has learned from March-
bank’s wife that the actor is a
brother of Steve’s and is himself
an ex-gangster with a _ prison
record. ‘This ends Marchbanks’
career as a movie idol which sat-
isfies Kent’s thirst for revenge.

He tells Linda he now is will-
ing to quit his dirt-throwing and
apply himself to constructive news
about the film colony. She has
learned from her rival, Verna,
that Kent is responsible for her
success and rushes into his arms.

Building Up Ross Alexander

We don’t mind tipping you off that Warner Bros. have
big things in mind for Ross Alexander. “Here Comes
Carter!” is his first big chance and if you get behind it
you'll find just what Grade A star material he is. Why
not go to town on an Alexander build-up? Here are
several ways you can go about it:

FIND HIS DOUBLE

Find the local double of Ross Alexander. You can do
this through a contest in local newspaper or in theatre
program. Young men send in their photographs to be
compared with Ross. Contest can run for week before
film opens with photos published every day. The winner
can be presented with suitable prize, presentation taking
place on your stage. It’s not a new gag but it always
creates interest.

DISPLAY STILLS FROM PAST HITS

Scene stills from former Alexander pictures will make
an interesting lobby display. These stills also make a
good newspaper contest. Editor asks readers to identify
films stills represent. It can always be worked as a lobby
contest. Just award ducats to ten first writers who get the
best scores.

GAG POLITICAL THROWAWAY

With political news and presidential elections in the air,
you can make up locally an inexpensive gag throwaway
modelled along political lines. Copy could read: “Atten-
tion, Voters! You Have Your Favorite Presidential Can-
didate—but Ross Alexander Will Surely Get Your Vote

in ‘Here Comes Carter’ now at the Strand Theatre.”

SKY-WRITE HIS NAME

If local airport has a plane with sky-writing apparatus,
and you can make a proper tie-up, spread the sky with
star’s name and also film’s title and theatre. You'll be
sure to plug his name as well as picture this way.

LET THE LADIES DRESS HIM

Announce a “Dress Ross Alexander Contest” to the ladies
through lobby signs and on your program. Idea is for
the women to use their imaginations in dressing Ross
from head to foot, including accessories, in clothes for
morning, afternoon, evening and sports occasions. You
can award ducats to the ten girls who submit the best sets
of outfits. And for your judges—prominent clothier and
women stylists can fill the bill.

PLUG THE “HUH-HO”

In his role as a radio columnist, Ross has a characteristic
trade-mark after spilling a choice bit of gossip. With
proper nursing, you can make the yell mean as much as
Joe E. Brown’s. Best bet is through the kids. By way of
publicity stories, throwaways and lobby signs, you can
announce this yell as the basis for a contest on a Saturday
matinee or after school. Contest is held in front of theatre
with your own microphone attached to P. A. system, or
if you can, over the air if broadcasters go for it. Loudest
and funniest ‘““Huh-Ho’ers” get the nod and are rewarded
with Annie Oakleys.

age Four

HAVE GAG RECEPTION

On opening day, signs an-
nounce that Kent Carter will
arrive at theatre at certain
time. At appointed hour, lim-
ousine decked with streamers,
siren, motorcycle escort, etc.,
drives up to theatre. Recep-
tion committee composed of
yourself and others prepare
to receive Carter. When usher
opens door, car is empty ex-
cept for driver. After you’ve
put the proper worried look
on your faces, voice on P. A.
system is heard: “This 1s Kent

Carter, himself, speaking. You gotta get around fast in my bust-
ness. I’m never seen but I’m always there where things are the hot-
test, etc.’ Think it'll get a news break?

PICKETS PARADE

Aristocratic-looking picketers
parading with signs, reading:
“We protest! ‘Here Comes
Carter!’ is unfair to people
with pasts. He must be
silenced. Go to the Strand
Theatre and see for your-
selves.” Or would it be better
to have them picket at theatre?

RAGS RUN TEASE

Each day before opening,
newspaper runs gossip item
in voice of people column,
signed ‘Here Comes Carter!”
With interest aroused, query
“Who is Carter?” appears.
On opening day mystery is
cleared — he’s Ross Alexan-
der, of course.

Swell Free Radio Sketch

A free radio sketch—twelve minutes in length
with three minutes at beginning and end for
picture plug — tells folks plenty about show.
Enough copies — all free — can be ordered
through Campaign Plan Editor, 321 West 44th

St., New York City.

CO-OPS AD COPY

Local store can use this copy
in window displays or in ads:
“Ross Alexander in ‘Here
Comes Carter!’ knows every-
body's business and tells the
world. We're satisfied with
just knowing our own business
and letting the world come to
us.”’ Still of Ross helps plug.

MINIATURE MIKE

Tie-up with electrical and
music shops selling miniature
microphones. which really
work when plugged into a
socket. Get stores to feature
these mikes in window sur-

rounded by stills and copy
from pic.

Flash! Film’s Stars Wed!

As we go to press, we discover that at the completion of
shooting of ‘““Here Comes Carter!’ Ross Alexander and his
leading lady, Anne Nagel, hopped off to Yuma, Arizona,

where they were secretly sealed to each other—yes, they’re
man and wife now.

Inasmuch as this flash arrived here just a bit too late to in-
corporate in the film’s publicity, exploitation and advertis-
ing campaigns, we think that you might find an angle on
the marriage clause to adapt to your set-up.

WAYS TO SELL THE PICTURE

PLAYBOYS LEAVE TOWN

ae

Here Comes Carter! The Man who

A humorous street bally
would be to show playboys
and other gossip-subjects hast-
ily leaving town because Car-
ter is coming. Man in evening
tails driving horse-drawn
wagon laden with old furni-
ture is main feature of stunt.
Chorus girls, fat and fortyish
sugar daddies, and others walk
beside wagon all showing
signs of having packed their
belongings in a great rush.
Streamers and signs reading:
“Get on the Bandwagon —
Makes a Business of Gossip,”

or “Hitch your wagon to a horse when Carter comes. There'll be
no diwing thio 2 (city) when he starts broadcasting his gossip.

STREET SWEEPER

Well-dressed man sweeping
streets with broom; copy on
his back readings C"f ere

the dirt for his next broadcast.
He’s dishing it out at the
Strand Theatre.”

POSTER CUT-OUT

Don’t forget when you're
mapping out your campaign
that the posters (found else-
where in this book) can be
cut out and make effective
lobby displays.

Gossip Column On Air

Hollywood gossip column at right while written
particularly for newspapers can also be used on

radio program. Of course, a few changes here
and there will have to be made to make it suit-
able for air use either as spot announcement or
within regular program.

KEYHOLE TEASER

Lobby display of keyhole
with an enclosed box and sign
telling folks to peep through
and see something sensational.
When they look, they get an
eyeful — of stills and copy

plugging pic.

GOSSIP ON TRUCK

If you go for sound trucks,
rig up a P. A. system on one
and have young man at mike
rattle off local or national gos-
sip in tattler fashion. Intro-
duce him with “Here Comes
Carter, folks!” Streamers tell
rest of story.

GIANT LOBBY MIKE

Have your artist make-up a ~_

giant cardboard microphone
as per illustration. Arrange
scenes from picture cut into
small circles around face of
microphone with some good,
snappy copy. This one will

give proper atmosphere to *

your theatre lobby and isn’t
expensive at all. Same stunt
can be used effectively in
proper spots around town or
even on a sound truck. Radio
or electrical equipment store
might want to tie up with you

on this stunt—lowering your cost to almost nothing, and giving
you an additional window for your show.

Newspaper Gossip Column

Local editors on the lookout for publicity that is also
newsworthy should be able to find a place for this Hol-
lywood chatter column in their news sheets. Why not
show it to your local editor and get his reaction?

HOT
from HOLLYWOOD

by KENT CARTER

Huh-ho-o-o0-0-0-o! Not ancient hieroglyphics or some
new-fangled pigeon talk. Just a mere common yell Ross
Alexander invented for his new picture, “‘“Here Comes
Carter!’’, now showing at the Theatre, in
which he does his bit to immortalize us old Hollywood
sit-by-the-fire reporters. Only Ross does his gossip work
on the ether, finishing off his juiciest items with the
aforementioned yell.

Well, we have a huh-ho-o-o-0-o of our own and its on
Ross himself. It concerns Anne Nagel who, while work-
ing on the set of ““Here Comes Carter!”’, managed to kill
two “‘careers’”’ with one stone, as it were. She made a big
hit as Ross Alexander’s leading lady both on and off the
screen. Yes, they’re man and wife now... . Ross is sup-
posed to be a great cook, so there shouldn’t be any
trouble on that score. Ian Hunter is another whose “cul-
inaries”’ are the toast of the town.

* * *

“Life in a Trunk’’—that would be the title of Glenda
Farrell’s autobiography were Glenda to get that serious
about herself. She’s played stock all-over the United
States and made her stage debut as Little Eva in “Uncle
Tom’s Cabin’’—a far cry from the fast-talking, smart-
alecky part she plays in “Here Comes Carter!” When she
gives up the screen she would like to marry a millionaire.
Think I'll start saving now. Drew Eberson 1s her latest.
Huh-ho-o-o-0-o!

* * *

Victor Moore, known to his political constituents as
Alexander Throttlebottom, has the chief comedy role in
“The Golddiggers of 1937.” Years ago he had a part in
a stage play for which he had to grow a bit of lip adorn-
ment. Ever since, he has been tugging at an imaginary
mustache although the mustache disappeared with the
play, a many years ago... . Dick Purcell, for whom War-
ner Bros. have great hopes, seen escorting June Travis
to Hollywood parties. Huh-ho-o-o-0-o.

* * *

Ruby Keeler and Ross Alexander are cast for “Ready,
Willing and Able’ that Richard Macauley Saturday
Evening Post story ... Warner Bros. have big plans for
Billy Mauch who was Freddie March’s boyhood in
“Anthony Adverse.’ After completing “Penrod and
Sam,” he will play with his twin brother in Mark Twain's
classic, “The Prince and the Pauper.”

* * *

Patricia Ellis and Fred Keating once played boy meets
girl. Then they called it off, but now they are making
“reel”? love in Warners’ “Melody for Two.’? Huh-ho-
0-o-0-o with all due apologies to Ross Alexander who in
‘“‘Here Comes Carter!”’ gives the best demonstration of
a gossip reporter these old eyes have ever seen. It’s at
the Strand.

About 10 ‘love’ songs are played—first five with cor-

TITLE CONTEST

Annie Oakleys for most
song titles with word
‘love.’ Contest can be run
thru newspapers or con-
testants can fill in names
on slips of paper sup-
plied in theatre lobby.

PLUG ON P. A.

No need for our telling
you to have P. A. system
going at all times plug-
ging songs out front and
in auditorium. Also get
after local bands to play
songs and plug picture.

A swell tie-up with local radio
station would be to invite winner
and runner-up of amateur hour
song-fest to sing pic’s songs on
stage of your theatre. Conductor
announces this added feature with
proper mention of pic and play-
dates. Anne Nagel’s extra-girl to
star rise would make interesting
comment here. A little extra per-
suasion might get ork to play or
talent to sing “Through the Court-
esy of Love” and “You On My
Mind.” Don’t pull your punches

on this one—make theatre affair something to see and then read all about

it in the newspapers. .

.. If you want to run the affair without help

from radio station, go right ahead! Just announce the fact that you’re
having an amateur night, promote a few prizes—and let nature take

its course.

ANNOUNCERS’ LINE

“Through the Courtesy of Love”
is a natural for radio announcers
who like to give their plugs with
a little different twist to ’em. F’r
instance: “We are now going to
play ‘Through the Courtesy of
Love’ — through the courtesy of
the Strand Theatre which 1s now
showing “Here Gomes Carter!” in
which the song is featured.”

ORGANIST PLAYS

If your organist is still around
have him play picture’s songs
while lyrics are flashed on screen.
Naturally, he gives film big plug
in spiel that accompanies his play-
ing of the songs.

GIRL IN CLUBS

Might be worth your while to hire
good-looking girl to make rounds
of taverns and nite clubs or any
other place where customers in-
quire about cover charges to sing
“Courtesy” song through courtesy
of your theatre. Wouldn’t be too

expensive, would it?

FLORIST TIE-UP

Local florist might use ‘“‘Courtesy”
song title as catch line in window
display. Like — “Through the
Courtesy of Love we are offering
this plant, etc., at a special price.”

Radio’s Secrets
Revealed in Film
Coming to Strand

The tongue is mightier than
the bullet in a battle between a
radio seandalmonger and _ gun-
men in the new First National
picture, “Here ‘Comes Carter!”
which is scheduled as the feature
attraction -at. ther | Afnca sober

picture is said to be a melodra-
matic thriller punctuated by rol-
licking comedy and snappy dia-
logue. The action is fast, with
cumulating suspense that is
maintained to its smashing cli-
max.

Ross Alexander appears first
as press agent of a movie com-
pany but is discharged because
he refuses to resort to bribery to
get an actor whom he despises
out of one of his many disgrace-
ful scrapes.

Knowing the picture business
and its characters thoroughly, he
gets a job as a radio commentator,
dishing up scandal on the stars
especially anything concerning
the sereen player who caused his
dismissal.

This leads

him into trouble

with gangster friends of the ac- -

tor who threaten him with speedy
extinction if he broadcasts cer-
tain items they think best left
unsaid. His refusal to “lay off”
lands him in a serious predica-
ment. But the police appear and
in a dramatic gun battle—which
unknowingly is broadcast over
the mike—the mobster’s band is
wiped out.

Alexander has two leading
ladies in the film, Glenda Farrell,
his wise-cracking secretary, and
Anne Nagel, a _ radio. singer
whose career he is responsible for
"Craig Reynolds plays the part
of the supercilious and crooked
movie star. Rounding-out a nicely
balanced cast are Hobart Cavan-
augh, Norman Willis, George E.
Stone, John Sheehan and Charles
Foy.

The picture was directed by
William Clemens from the screen
play by Roy Chanslor. “Through
the Courtesy of Love” and “You
On My Mind,” which are sung
by Anne Nagel in the picture, are
by M. K. Jerome and Jack Scholl.

(Review )

‘Here Comes Carter!’ Is
Unique Comedy of Radio

Radio Film Combines Thrilling Melodrama With
Riotous Laughter

A whimsical take-off on both the radio and motion pic-
tures, providing thrills and hilarity, will be found in the
new First National film, ‘‘Here Comes Carter!’’ which was

shown to enthusiastic audiences at the

Theatre yesterday for the first time locally.
The picture concerns the activities of a Hollywood gossip

reporter and the resulting diffi-
culties he gets in because of his
unwillingness to withhold some
scandalous items on a certain
sereen star. Incidentally, while
viewing “Here Comes Carter!”
one gathers quite a lot of infor-
mation on movie studios and radio
broadeasting activities.

The picture is enlivened by
catchy .airs written by the fa-
mous team of M. K. Jerome and
Jack Scholl and sung by Anne
Nagel in very good voice, we
must say, while Ross Alexander
listens-in.

Alexander has never appeared
to better advantage than as the
movie ex-press agent, who is fired
from his job because he refuses
to resort to blackmail to square
the company’s star, who is mixed
up in a disgraceful scandal. Turn-
ing to the radio to dish out gos-
sip about the players he knows
so well, he gives a fine portrayal
of a fast-talking broadcaster who
doesn’t care whose toes he steps
on.

Glenda Farrell gives her usual
fine performance as a _ smart-
cracking secretary who knows all
the answers before they are
asked, but who, unfortunately,
can’t help falling in love with
her boss although she knows her
chances are practically nil.

Miss Nagel is the other girl
who ditches her lover only to take
him back when his virulent at-
tacks prove justifiable. A com-
parative newcomer to the screen,
having entered pictures by way
of stage musical comedy, she not
only has a pleasing voice and
magnetic manner, but proves her-
self to be a capable screen ac-
tress.

Others who do work worthy of
comment are Craig Reynolds,
Norman Willis, George E. Stone,
John Sheehan and Charles Foy.

The direction was well handled
by William Clemens, as also was
the screen play by Roy Chans-
lor. The original stor is by
M. Jacoby.

Glenda Farrell
Fastest Talking
Screen Actress

Glenda Farrell is the fastest
talking motion picture actress in
Hollywood, according to film edi-
tors assigned to cut “Here Comes

Carter!”, the First National
picture now showing at the
PAAR kph sae theatre.

Glenda has held this unique
record for some time, and is
proud of the fact that she can
rattle off her lines at a faster-
moving tempo than any other ac-
tress on the screen.

“T attribute what measure of
success I have had to an exact
understanding of my _ script,”
said Miss Farrell. “I run over
each sequence until I know it
backwards and forwards.

“When I know it that well, I
can spout it out as fast as I
want to, although I am often
asked to slow it down a little for
the sake of others appearing in
the scene.”

In “Here Comes Carter!”, Miss
Farrell finds plenty of opportun-
ity to flaunt her unchallenged

At Strand Today

“Here Comes Carter!”, First

probes behind the scenes of both
radio broadcasting stations and
moving picture studios, comes to
[Hives Uae cape Urea ater theatre today,
with Ross Alexander, Glenda Far-
rell and Anne Nagel in the fea-
tured ‘roles.

The picture is said to be
packed with thrills and rollick-
ing humor from start to finish.
The action centers around the
activities of an ex-press agent
of a film company who uses his
knowledge of the movies to
broadeast scandal and _ gossip
about the stars. For his attacks
on a matinee idol who had caused
his dismissal because he refused
to help the actor out of one of
his many disgraceful escapades,
he is given a terrific beating by
a band of gangsters. An amazing
episode entailing a deadly gun-
fight, — which unknowingly is
broadcasted on the air—winds up
the story in a smashing climax.

Alexander has the role of the
radio columnist while Miss Far-
rell and Miss Nagel complete the
romantic triangle, both being in
love with him.

The picture is enlivened by
eatchy airs written by M. K.
Jerome and Jack Scholl and sung
by Miss Nagel, formerly of musi-
cal comedy fame, and the radio
trio, “The Three Cheers.”

Others in the cast include
Craig Reynolds, Hobart Cavan-
augh, George E. Stone, John
Sheehan, Joseph Crehan and Den-
nis Moore. William Clemeng di-
rected the picture from the
screen play by Roy Chanslor,
based on a story by M. Jacoby.

Anne Nagel, who plays the

worker in the First National

Ross Alexander
Saves Scenes By

Quick “Ad-Libs”

There’s one tradition of the
theatre which Ross Alexander
feels should not be discouraged.
That’s the good old custom of ad-
libbing.

While Ross was before the
camera with Glenda Farrell in
a scene for the First National
picture, “Here Comes Carter!’’,
NOWeshowane = ab) the... oNeen
theatre, he was called on to es-
cort Glenda to a door, remarking,
“T’ll see you out.”

All went well up to the time
Ross had finished speaking the
line, when he stumbled over a
carpet. Before the director could
call “Cut!” the breezy-speech ac-
tor “covered” with the remark,
‘Gf I can stay on my feet.” It
not only saved a scene, but im-
proved it.

During the making of another
scene, Alexander was telling the
new starlet, Anne Nagel, his
sweetheart in the picture, how
much he loved her. Suddenly he
sneezed. “Caught cold,” Ross ad-
libbed. “I was up all night think-
ing about you.”

Alexander has the role of a
gossipy radio columnist in “Here
Comes Carter!”, which gives the
lowdown on both radio broad-
casting and moving pictures.
Others in the cast include Craig
Reynolds, Hobart Cavanaugh, and
George E. Stone.

Ross Alexander
Gets Frightened

Before Camera

Ross Alexander is still fight-
ing that inferiority complex
which he acquired the first day
he arrived in Hollywood and
stood before the camera for a
make-up test. This interesting bit
of information was garnered from
Ross himself on the set of “Here
Comes Carter!”, the First Na-
tional production now showing
Sb Gts a enncnt cassia theatre.

“Tt makes me feel just like a
seven-year-old schoolboy reciting
‘Gunga Din’ before the Parent-
Teacher Association,” the actor
said.

To combat this mental nervous-
ness, Ross has just worked out
a set of resolutions which he
followed, while working on “Here
Comes Carter!”

Accosting strangers on the
street and asking them for direc-
tions gave him self-assurance.
Listening to talking phonograph
records for hours and hours with-
out appearing bored was another
resolution which built-up his con-
fidence. Thirdly, he tried address-
ing public gatherings.

“T didn’t get any invitation to
talk before a club, so I formed
one of my own,” he says.

Alexander has the role of a
movie press agent and later a
gossipy radio broadcaster in
“Here Comes Carter!” which
combines hilarious comedy with
dynamic thrills. Others in the
cast include Glenda Farrell, Anne
Nagel, Craig Reynolds, Hobart
Cavanaugh, George E. Stone, Jo-
seph Crehan and Dennis Moore.

Sheer Persistence Wins

Movie Job For Anne Nagel

Ambitious Starlet Now Has Featured Lead in
*““Here Comes Carter!”’’

It’s fun to be ambitious, in the opinion of Anne Nagel.
Not yet twenty-one, ambitious Anne is portraying for
the sereen the role of a girl with aspiration to sing on the
radio in ‘‘Here Comes Carter!’’ the Warner Bros. picture

which comes to the.........

Neate ON 1. er, oe GG

Anne early made up her mind that she wanted to be an

actress. Studying at Notre Dame
Academy, she was temporarily
sidetracked into nursing.

“Then one day I watched a
girl friend rehearse with a the-
atrical company in Boston,”
Anne says, “ and I knew right
then that I could never be a
nurse or anything else but an
actress.

“So I did what I contend every-
one should do about his ambi-
tion. I went into action. I ap-
plied for a job and with that
company, and kept on applying
till they gave me a trial in order
to get rid of me. Later I did bits
in other stage plays.

“Early in 1935 I went to Holly-
wood, where by following my
policy of persistence, I landed
small parts in a half-dozen pic-
tures.

“Ambition without planning
leads merely to discontent. And
there has to be observation back
of planning. Well, I noticed that
a new actress would have her
best chance at an important role
in a Western. So I went after the
job of being Dick Foran’s lead-
ing lady in ‘Guns of the Pecos.’
I got the role.”

Blue-eyed Anne’s work in the
Western led to the important
assignment in “Here Comes Car-
ter!” In that comedy-drama of
radio and pictures, Miss Nagel
is the sweetheart of Ross Alex-
ander.

The action in the picture is
divided between a radio station
and a motion picture studio, and
reveals many things going on be-
hind the scenes. It packs a punch
in every line—a combination of
laughs and thrills. Besides those

already mentioned, the cast in-

cludes Craig Reynolds, Hobart
Cavanaugh, George E. Stone,
Joseph Crehan and Dennis

getting females. Especially if you want milk.

They are temperamental beast-
ies, more temperamental than
any actor. They’re phlegmatic,
they’re stubborn. They respond
to argument, persuasion, threats
and curses very calmly in that
they do what they please any-
way.

The rumor that they diet on
empty tomato soap cans is a
canard. My goats turned their ex-
pressive noses up at this rugged
diet when I tried it. I don’t ad-
vise leaving them near the wash
line where the undies are hung.
Not that they like pink unmen-
tionables as a steady diet. It’s
just for a change when they are
bored.

They have the mistaken idea
that new pastures are the green-
est. Habitual experimenters, they
have more ways of leaving the
grounds to explore new territory
than Dillinger had.

The last straw occurred the
day they vanished and we scoured
the neighborhood for two hours
only to find them in the back
seat of the car in the garage
looking meditatively at the up-
holstery.

You’ve seen goats pulling carts
at some time or other. Perhaps
you saw a picture of one of
mine transporting me about the
grounds. Don’t believe it.

She finally consented to pose
but I felt all along that the
whole affair had wounded her
deeply. A moment after it was

taken, she reclined on the spot
and fretfully gnawed the har-
ness in two.

So you still want to know how
to milk a goat?

Step one. Find the goat. This
is no easy matter as you can see
from above.

Step two. Get the milking
stool. It’s usually in the kitchen
where the maid has used it to
reach the top shelf where the
preserves are.

Step three. Persuade the goat
to be milked. This, of course,
depends upon her.

Step four. Sit in traditional
position and proceed as with cow
except for slight variations which
you will no doubt discover for
yourself. The tail won’t bother
you so you won’t have to tie it
down with a brick. This makes
them nervous besides.

Although obviously an expert
on goat-milking, Ross is not
called upon to exhibit his favor-
ite chore in his latest picture,
“Here Comes Carter!” Others in

Ross Alexander Runs Away

Always Has Fought Against Fate Says Star of

Ross Alexander is the most cheery and breezy pessimist

in Hollywood.

has the leading role in ‘‘Here Comes Carter

i the > inst

only thing one can do about
Fate is to be aggressive in one’s
attitude toward her.

“When yowre mad about some
particularly vicious blow that
life has handed you, don’t lie
down and mope. Put so much pep
and vigor into your protests that
your anger gill become a hobby,
and something refreshing.”

Learning something of Alex-
ander’s philosophy of life makes
it easier to understand why his
performance in “Here Comes Car-
ter!” ranks among the best in
his career. The man he charac-
terizes, a Hollywood radio com-
mentator, expresses Alexander’s
own attitude toward life.

The opening of the picture
sees Alexander as publicity man-
ager of a motion picture studio.
His denunciation of a star who
refuses to “do right by” his fam-
ily leads to Ross’s being fired.

Ross takes the blow “standing
up”, and promptly lands a radio
job as a movie-gossip broadcast-
er. His continual exposure of the
star lands him in a street brawl
with gangsters in which he gets
much the worse of it. So Ross
continues his daring broadcasts
from a hospital bed.

When his sweetheart, played
by Anne Nagel, misunderstands
his motives and leaves him, Ross
secretly continues to advance her
career. From that point on,
troubles attack from all direc-
tions and Ross fights back.

Alexander was a boy when he
first rebelled against Fate. Al-
though he always wanted to be
an actor, his parents didn’t agree
with him. They thought he
should be an engineer.

The boy decided to do some-
thing about the situation when
he was sixteen. He went to the
head of the school’s engineering
classes and said in very certain
terms that he thought engineer-
ing was the most boresome of
human occupations. In fact, he
became so emphatic that the pro-
fessor was soon roaring mad,

“He kicked me out,” explains
Ross suecinetly.

The elder Alexanders were
still adamant. So the rebellious
son ran away. He hiked and rode
freights as far as the middle
west before his father caught
up with him.

“Vous. wank,”
ander.

So young Alexander went to a
dramatices school for six months,
at the end.of which time Blanche
Yurka discovered him and gave
him an important role. His re-
lentless struggle with Fate did
not end there and Ross continued
his policy of chopping at ob-
stacles and going on to the am-
bitions he could visualize.

The result is that now Rogs
has fashioned a life to his lik-
ing out of rough materials. He
likes to play vigorous roles such
as the one he has in “Here
Comes Carter!” Appearing with
him in the picture are Glenda
Farrell, Anne Nagel, Craig Rey-
nolds and Hobart Cavanaugh.

“And a man has to be cold sober
to make a good job of a drinking

In “Here Comes. Carter!”’,
Cavanaugh plays a radio com-

for quite a number of years, he
found that it required no little
extra study in diction to be able
to imitate a radio announcer.

In addition to listening in,
Ross made electrical transcrip-
tions of some of the best pro-
grams in order that he may play
them over and over again until
he learned the announcer’s style
by heart.

“Here Comes Carter!” takes
you behind the scenes of a big
broadeasting station and a movie
studio and combines riotous com-
edy with melodramatic thrills.
Others in the cast include Glenda
Farrell, Anne Nagel, Craig Rey-
nolds, Hobart Cavanaugh, George
E. Stone, Joseph Crehan and
Dennis Moore.

Music and lyries are by M. K.

Glenda Farrell Discusses
How To Snare The Boss

But She Doesn’t Follow Her Own Advice in
‘Here Comes Carter!’’

Glenda Farrell, now playing the role of seductive secre-
tary in ‘‘Here Comes Carter!’’ the Warner Bros. picture

whens Gomes tO Theses... .

ei te Theatre has some

definite ideas about how to be a secretary. This is her sixth
role as a secretary so she knows something about it.

‘“Every secretary ought to be Irish and German,

Glenda. “German to be methodi-
cal—and Irish to keep things in-
teresting.”

“That,’ she added
wink, “is what I am.”

“Every secretary should weigh
115 pounds, my weight. She
should act nonchalant, men don’t
like secretaries who take them-
selves seriously. She should laugh
at the boss’ jokes, and _ she
shouldn’t take over ten seconds
to say anything.

“One thing, however, I would
never be a secretary to a bald-
headed man. I wouldn’t ever get
my work done, for I can’t keep
my eyes off a bald spot.

“Some office girls think that
they can build up reputations for
themselves by wisecracking. Mat-
ter of fact, nothing annoys a
man more than a woman who
says smarter things than he can
think up himself. The best bet
is to be what is called in vaude-
ville a ‘feeder’,—give the boss
starts which he ecan ‘top.’

“And above all, don’t be
‘orand.’ Men like girls who are
informal, friendly, frank.

“Never try to ‘teach’ your boss
anything. And don’t admit that
you know so much that he can’t
have the masculine joy of ex-
plaining things.

“In regard to social matters,
never play bridge with your
boss.”

Glenda Farrell paused. Direc-
tor William Clemens had ealled
that Ross Alexander, her boss in
“Here Comes Carter!” was ready
to give dictation.

“T don’t really know stenog-
raphy,” Glenda confessed. “When
Ross dictates, I annoy him by
making funny pictures of him in
my notebook.

‘But, about advice to stenog-
raphers, any secretary who takes

the advice I’ve just offered won’t
work in an office long. She’ll

Miss Farrell doesn’t follow her
own advice in “Here Comes Car-
ter!” She’s a wise-cracking sec-
retary and that’s probably one
of the reasons she loses out to
Anne Nagel.

The picture contains hilarious
comedy spiced with thrills.

Picture Actor

Would Like To
Get A New Face

Hobart Cavanaugh, who plays
a featured role in “Here Comes
Carter!”, the First National pic-
ture now showing at the
theatre, says he has gone through

life being a personification of
the little guy in political car-
toons who is always labeled

“John J. Taxpayer” or “Mr. Av-
erage Citizen.” His average
maws face gets him into a lot
of trouble.

The comedian is always being
mistaken for someone else. Hard-
ly a day passes throughout the
week that some total stranger,
meeting him around the lot or
on the Hollywood streets doesn’t
come up to him, slap him soundly
on the back, and say:

“Well, if it isn’t old Joe Snod-
grass. Where have you been
keeping yourself, you old horse-
thief?”

Whereupon the “horse-thief”
hag to do a lot of explaining to
convince the enthusiastic strang-
er that he isn’t Joe Snodgrass,
or even a relation of that gentle-
man.

“Here Comes Carter!” takes
you behind the scenes of a big
broadeasting station and com-
bines riotous comedy with melo-

dramatie thrills. Others in the
cast include Ross Alexander,
Glenda Farrell, Anne Nagel,
Craig Reynolds, George E. Stone,
Joseph Crehan and _ Dennis
Moore.

Glenda Farrell Refuses
To Clown Off Film Set

But Friends Expect Lead in “Here Comes Carter!”
To Be Always Wisecracking

‘“‘You must come to my party tonight, honey. And be
sure and think up some funny things to say. Dinner will

be at eight.’’

When Glenda Farrell, now appearing at the
First National picture,

Theatre in the

‘“‘Here Comes

Carter!’’ is requested to attend a party or a reception of

some kind, she is usually asked
in the above manner. When she
arrives she is led into the center
of activities and told to be
funny.

This irks the comedienne in no
uncertain terms, for, as funny as
she is on the screen, she dislikes
the idea of carrying her particu-
lar brand of humor into her pri-
vate life. She is naturally timid
and hates the idea of being a
“show off” of any type.

“If I could just be myself at
parties I’d be a lot happier,” says
Glenda, “but they won’t allow
me. I’m Glenda Farrell, the hard-
boiled, wise-cracking little moll
of the screen, and if I don’t play
the part in private life, I imme-
diately become a social outeast.

“They expect me to answer
every query with ‘Oh, Yeah!’ I
am supposed to insult other
guests with flippant remarks, spill
soup in their laps, say ‘dese’
instead of these, have a scream-
ingly funny answer for any ques-
tion, wear gaudy dresses, and
chew gum when I’m not talking
—which is hardly ever.

“It never seems to enter their
heads that after doing this all
day in a picture I would like to
act like a normal person in my
off hours. They would never
think of asking a Shakespearean
actor to act out his favorite
scene from ‘Hamlet.’ Yet they
never hesitate to ask me to keep
them rolling on the floor with
up-to-date wisecracks and funny
stories.

“When I try to be myself and
appear as a normal, fairly intelli-
gent female, they think I’m put-
ting on an act and accuse me

Page Fourteen

of being upstage. Such is the re-
ward of being a screen comedi-
enne.”

Glenda has the role of a wise-
cracking secretary in “Here
Comes Carter!” She is cast as
a flippant person who knows all
the answers and when to give
them.

“And when my friends see the
picture,’ says Glenda, “they’ll
say: ‘Oh, there’s Glenda Farrell
again. We must ask her over for
dinner some night real soon.
She’ll be so much fun for Uncle
Herman and his rheumatism’.”

Miss Farrell is the rival of
Anne Nagel for the love of Ross
Alexander in “Here Comes Car-
ter!” which combines hilarious
comedy with thrills. Craig Rey-
nolds, Hobart Cavanaugh, George
E. Stone, Joseph Crehan and
Dennis Moore are also in it.

Music and lyrics are by M. K.
Jerome and Jack Scholl. William
Clemens directed the picture
from the screen play by Roy
Chanslor, based on a story by

Thinks Nursing Makes
Good Movie Training

Nursing is excellent training
for acting, according to Anne
Nagel, currently teamed with
Ross Alexander in “Here Comes

ture now showing: at the........

Anne ought to know, for she
studied nursing at Notre Dame
Academy in Boston.

Throws Scare In
Ross Alexander

Ross Alexander went through
a harrowing experience in a
scene for “Here Comes Carter!”
the First National picture which
CODES LO stNO ger sear teae theatre
The shot in-
volved Glenda Farrell’s handing
two pills to Ross, who was lying
wounded in a hospital.

Glenda arranged a “rib” with
Director William Clemens, so the
director did not stop the scene
as he was supposed to do when
the pills had been received.

The camera rolled on while
Ross looked at the pills. Always

good at ad-libbing, Ross stalled,

complaining to Glenda that he
didn’t like to take pills. Glenda
wouldn’t help him out and Clem-
ens didn’t say “Cut.” So Ross
swallowed the pills.

When the director ended the
scene, Alexander jumped out of
bed, yelling:

“What was in those pills?”

The helpful Miss Farrell pro-
nounced various long medical-
sounding words and ended up by
saying that they were chemical
dynamite and would probably
send the star to a real hospital
bed.

It took Director Clemens’s as-
surance that the pills were really
nothing but bread erumbs to
quiet Alexander.

In “Here Comes Carter!” which
combines hilarious comedy with
thrills, Alexander plays the role
of a radio scandal columnist who
is put on the spot by gangsters
because the gossip he ‘reports
isn’t to their liking. Others in
the cast include Anne Nagel,
Craig Reynolds, Hobart Cavan-
augh, George E. Stone, Joseph
Crehan and Dennis Moore.

Glenda Farrell’s Home
Similar To Movie Sets

“What a beautiful room! It
looks just like a movie set!”

Such ig the remark generally
made by the average visitor to
Glenda Farrell’s North Holly-
wood home. Glenda’s rooms are
furnished in exquisite taste, the
furniture and works of art being
copies of similar objects used in
dressing the sets in which Glen-
da has worked.

When Miss Farrell sees a par-
ticularly attractive decorative
piece on her set she checks with
the property man or rental de-
partment and finds out where it
came from. Then, if a like piece
is obtainable, Glenda secures it
for her home.
